        "question": "Which cities in Maryland can I fly to directly or with one stop from Paris?",
        "answer": "From Paris you can reach Baltimore/Washington International Airport, the main gateway to Maryland, with one stop. There are no non-stop flights. Typical connections are through New York, Atlanta, or Philadelphia. BWI serves central Maryland and is convenient for Baltimore and Annapolis. For western Maryland, consider flying into Washington Dulles or Reagan National, which are nearby and offer more transatlantic options, then driving or taking ground transport. Salisbury on the Eastern Shore is served by small regional flights, usually requiring a connection through Philadelphia or Charlotte."

        "question": "What are the most popular areas to visit in Maryland and how does that affect where I should fly?",

Ocean City is popular for boardwalk fun. Fly into Baltimore-Washington International for Baltimore, Annapolis and the Eastern Shore. For Ocean City, Salisbury Regional is closest but has limited flights, so BWI is often more practical."
